Part of the attraction was the Frito pie and cinnamon roll lunch provided from 11 a.m. to 2:30 p.m., not to mention an elaborate table of Christmas goodies. “Food helps!” wrote Char Hosea.

Everyone appeared to be having a good time and the cash register was busy. Also present were other artists of the co-op: Helen Bendzsa, Donna Abert, Sandi Hofferber, Laverne Hanes, Carol McClure, Apolo Miranda and antique collector Lynn Horner. There are now 20 booths in the emporium, all offering unique gifts and treasures for the holiday season.
